Towards national diagnostic reference levels for mammography in Serbia
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2020)
The objective of this work is to investigate the possibility to set a national diagnostic reference levels (nDRLs) for diagnostic and screening mammography in Serbia based on local practice and available resources. This ...
The use of active personal dosemeters in interventional workplaces in hospitals: comparison between active and passive dosemeters worn simultaneously by medical staff
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2020)
Medical staff in interventional procedures are among the professionals with the highest occupational doses. Active personal dosemeters (APDs) can help in optimizing the exposure during interventional procedures. However, ...
Skin dose mapping in interventional cardiology: a practical solution
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2020)
Numerous cases of radiation-induced tissue reactions following interventional cardiology (IC) procedures have been reported, resulting in the need for an optimized and personalized dosimetry. At present, there are many ...
Spatial Variability of Indoor Radon Concentration in Schools: Implications on Radon Measurement Protocols
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2020)
The requirements about radon measurements in schools and public buildings included in most of the national and international legislations are generally restricted to all the rooms located at the ground floor and basement, ...
Evaluation of radiation dose for patients undergoing mammography in Qatar
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2020)
In the absence of information on radiation doses in mammography in the Gulf countries, this study was designed to assess patient dose in terms of entrance surface air kerma and average glandular dose (AGD) in three mammography ...
Measurement of uranium in urine, hair and nails in subjects of Niska Banja town, a high natural background radiation area of Serbia
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2019)
Urine, hair and nail samples were collected from a population of both sex aged from 40 to 87 years in Niška Banja (227 km south of Belgrade, Serbia) with a high level of natural radioactivity (HLNRA). To assess and monitor ...
Effective Doses Estimated from the Results of Direct Radon and Thoron Progeny Sensors (DRPS/DTPS), Exposed in Selected Region of Balkans
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2019)
The main contribution to population exposure is due to radon and thoron progenies and not radon itself. The aim of this study was therefore to estimate annual effective dose using the results of Direct Radon and Thoron ...
Investigation of xenon-filled tube breakdown voltage and delay response as possible dosimetric parameters for small gamma ray air kerma rates
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2020)
This paper presents experimental results of dynamic breakdown voltage and delay response as functions of gamma ray air kerma rate for xenon-filled tube at 2.7 mbar pressure. Gamma ray air kerma rate range was considered ...
Uncertainty associated with the use of software solutions utilizing dicom rdsr for skin dose assessment in interventional radiology and cardiology
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2021)
The purpose of this work is to provide a comprehensive analysis of uncertainties associated with the use of software solutions utilizing DICOM RDSRs for skin dose assessment in the interventional fluoroscopic environment.Three ...
Proton inactivation of melanoma cells enhanced by fotemustine
(Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2011)
Response of human HTB140 melanoma cells to proton irradiation in combination with fotemustine (FM) was investigated. Effects of these agents were analysed on cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis. Cells pretreated ...
